Finding mean, median, and mode | Descriptive statistics | Probability and Statistics | Khan Academy

Here we give you a set of numbers and then ask you to find the mean, median, and mode. It's your first opportunity to practice with us!

Missed the previous lesson?

Probability and statistics on Khan Academy: We dare you to go through a day in which you never consider or use probability. Did you check the weather forecast? Busted! Did you decide to go through the drive through lane vs walk in? Busted again! We are constantly creating hypotheses, making predictions, testing, and analyzing. Our lives are full of probabilities! Statistics is related to probability because much of the data we use when determining probable outcomes comes from our understanding of statistics. In these tutorials, we will cover a range of topics, some which include: independent events, dependent probability, combinatorics, hypothesis testing, descriptive statistics, random variables, probability distributions, regression, and inferential statistics. So buckle up and hop on for a wild ride. We bet you're going to be challenged AND love it!

For free. For everyone. Forever. #YouCanLearnAnything

Thanks for shortening 6 cruel hours of our lives into a 3 minute and 54 second video.

MEAN is commonly called the average ^_^
MEDIAN is the middle number in a set of data when arranged in either ascending or descending order
LoL i guess.... MODE is the most frequent scores appeared in the set of data

The reason math is my favorite subject is because I can always find a easier/quicker way to solve a problem compared to my 1.5 hour lecture.
